Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My shadow crawls across the floor, and tries to close the final door.
The flicker of a dying light, another day turns into night.
There's a lock and no more key, a twisted kind of company.
Whispers turn to hollow sound, with no more solid ground.
[Pre-Chorus]
All my questions bleed out slow,
answers never seem to grow.
All the things I should have known,
are now just etched in stone.
[Chorus]
Riddles in the dark, where the questions haunt my mind!
A puzzle with no ending, a truth I cannot find!
Riddles in the dark, where the demons learn to play!
The pieces all are shattered, and they've thrown the rest away!
[Verse 2]
The faces swim inside the glass, reflections of a life that's passed.
The needle's point, a simple sting, the fragile peace that it can bring.
This poison helps me understand, the tremor in my shaking hand.
A comfort in the empty space, a fading memory of a face.
[Pre-Chorus]
All my questions bleed out slow,
answers never seem to grow.
All the things I should have known,
are now just etched in stone.
[Chorus]
Riddles in the dark, where the questions haunt my mind!
A puzzle with no ending, a truth I cannot find!
Riddles in the dark, where the demons learn to play!
The pieces all are shattered, and they've thrown the rest away!
[Bridge]
Lost inside a silent plea...
Was there ever hope for me?
Did you ever look to see?
The chains that were wrapped 'round me...
Riddles in the dark, where the questions haunt my mind!
A puzzle with no ending, a truth I cannot find!
Riddles in the dark, where the demons learn to play!
The pieces all are shattered, and they've thrown the rest away!
[Outro]
In the dark!
Your riddles in the dark!
In the dark!
Your riddles in the dark!
In the dark!
Your riddles in the dark!
In the dark!
Your riddles in the dark!
